The company and the union still haven't figured out how to get all the 900's and all the 900 drivers on the same page as far as Mesaba pilots being able to fly with Pinnacle pilots without causing a training nightmare bigger then they already have and also a fair way to do it. So you close ATL for Pinnacle and all those pilots are displaced and can bid where ever their seniority can hold. So if some go to MEM to fly the 900 that means Mesaba training "short course" couple weeks of training for same airplane "CRJ900" Actually I have confused myself on how this would go down, thats how confusing it is, anyone able to finish my thought??......
Sure, I'll try.

How's that?
